Maybe a bit strong in the wording but sometimes it takes a sledge
hammer to get someones attention.

"Tina.." has posted 10 questions on this forum from 21 Feb to 8 March.

2/24 Login query...
2/24 Top Precess..
2/27 LKM Trojan
2/28 Checking `rpcinfo'... INFECTED
2/28 fileutils Question (Last)
3/1 /etc/passwd.... - Urgent
3/6 Running script in background...
3/7 Newbie question...
3/8 sunrpc
3/8 rndc (Named)

Sounds like someone that turns to this forum FIRST instead of trying to
figure it out, investigate, and learn, BEFORE posting to this forum.

Any of the many many red hat books out on the market would have
answered just about all the questions.  Spending a little time on
Google would have also answered most of the questions.

I want to thank Bill for causing this constant dribble of questions to dry
up and go away.  I certainly don't mind helping but I think "Tina.." was
going a little overboard here.
